Title: Agglomeration process
Inventor: HSU SHENG-HSIUNG
IPC: A23F5/38
Filed: 1989-03-02
Granted: 1990-10-25
Abstract: Agglomeration of particles of a pulverulent water-soluble material is achieved by conveying a layer (22) of the material on a porous surface towards which a laminar flow of heated humid air is directed. A reduced pressure is applied from beneath the porous surface for drawing the heated humid air to contact the conveyed material for a time sufficient for fusing particles of the material at micropores formed at points of contact between the surfaces of the particles.

Title: Carton bottle partition
Inventor: FOGLE JAMES C
IPC: B65D5/497
Filed: 1995-09-12
Granted: 1997-10-30
Abstract: A divider panel for separating bottles in a carton. The divider panel is provided with shock absorbing feet so that upon being propelled at high speed into a group of adjacent bottles, the feet distort upwardly upon impact. This prevents the divider from bouncing out of the group as it would if the feet were not provided. Cutouts in the upper edge portions of the divider panel allow the panel blanks to be conveniently delivered to the insertion station.

Patent AU-579613-B2 (AU)
Title: Improvements relating to retractors
Inventor: SHARPE DAVID THOMAS
IPC: A61B17/02
Filed: 1985-03-08
Granted: 1988-12-01
Abstract: The invention defines a plastics disposable, hand applied medical retractor for retracting flesh at the edges of an incision or aperture in the human or animal body. At one end the retractor has a sharply inturned hook portion on the end of which are short, sharp, triangular teeth for impaling the flesh. The retractor bows upwardly from the hook portion and back down to a pad which has an adhesive undersurface so that it can be pressed directly to the skin so as to anchor thereto to keep the pulled back flesh in the retracted position. The said bowing allows the pulled back flesh to bunch upwardly to prevent such flesh from forcing the teeth out of engagement with the flesh and also provides inherent springiness tension in the retractor when it is applied improving its performance. Instead of the pad having adhesive it may have one part touch and close fastener, the other part being previously applied to the skin by pressure sensitive adhesive.

This is achieved in that a portion of this solvent is conveyed into a processing space from a large-volume reservoir tank, in that the objects to be cleaned are subsequently wetted with the solvent located in the processing space and cleaned by means of it, the solvent is guided back out of the processing space into a collecting tank after one or more cleaning processes and/or the gas atmosphere in the processing space is filtered and cleaned prior to the removal of the cleaned objects. Only one drawing is to be disclosed with reference to this.

Title: Method and apparatus for stretching bread dough and the like
Inventor: HAYASHI TORAHIKO
IPC: A21C1/08
Filed: 1996-05-01
Granted: 1997-07-24
Abstract: Dough (1) is stretched by passing it between a number of rollers (5,5'...) rotatably mounted on the periphery of a rotating wheel (7), and a conveyor (3) formed from a number of further rollers (31-35). The wheel rollers are freely rotatably mounted on shafts (6), and the conveyor rollers are individually driven. The gap (C) between the wheel rollers and the conveyor rollers decreases, and the rotational speed of the conveyor rollers can increase, in the direction of travel. As the dough is repeatedly compressed between the rollers, the thixotropy of the dough allows it to be stretched without damaging its structure. A drive plate (11) can be provided to cause the wheel rollers to rotate, and a discharge device (4) can be provided to receive the stretched dough, the discharge device travelling at a lower speed than the last (35) of the conveyor rollers. The rotational speed of the wheel can be adjusted to vary the frequency of compression of the dough. <IMAGE>

Title: Optical resolution of alkyl 1,4-benzodioxan-2-carboxylates using esterase from serratia marcescens
Inventor: ROSSI RICHARD F JR
IPC: C12P41/00
Filed: 1996-06-07
Granted: 1999-05-20
Abstract: A process for resolving racemic alkyl 1,4-benzodioxan-2-carboxylates useful as intermediates in the synthesis of optically pure pharmaceutical compounds such as (S)-doxazosin is disclosed. The process utilizes a microbial enzyme derived from Serratia marcescens to catalyze the enantioselective hydrolysis of the alkyl (S)-1,4-benzodioxan-2-carboxylate enantiomer of the racemic mixture to its corresponding carboxylic acid at a faster rate than the R-enantiomer. An enantiomerically pure S-configured carboxylic acid is thereby formed for subsequent pharmaceutical synthesis. The nonhydrolyzed alkyl (R)-1,4-benzodioxan-2-carboxylate enantiomer can also be isolated and racemized, and the enzymatic hydrolysis reaction repeated.

Title: Azimuthal driving system for wind turbines
Inventor: WOBBEN ALOYS
IPC: F03D7/04
Filed: 1999-10-12
Granted: 2003-09-25
Abstract: Wind power installations generally have an active drive for wind direction tracking. The active drive rotates the machine housing of the wind power installation in such a way that the rotor blades of the rotor are oriented in the direction of the wind. Multiple azimuthal drives are typically used for larger wind power installations. The present invention includes a wind power installation comprising a machine housing, a rotor with at least one rotor blade, and a displacement device for orientating the rotor in the direction of the wind. The displacement device has a three-phase asynchronous motor drive that is supplied with three-phase current and is at times or completely acted upon with direct current during the stoppage time of the machine housing. Thus improved displacement devices, such as azimuthal drives, are provided ensuring uniform load distribution for each drive and preventing unwanted torque fluctuations in the individual drives.

Title: Filter structure with two or more layers of fine fiber having extended useful service life
Inventor: BENSON JAMES D
IPC: D01F6/90
Filed: 2001-08-21
Granted: 2006-05-25
Abstract: The use of fine fiber or fiber having a fiber diameter of about 0.0001 to 0.5 microns has become an important design tool for filter media. Common filter media have been prepared with a layer of fine fiber on typically formed the upstream or intake side of the media structure. The fine fiber increases the efficiency of filtration by trapping small particles which increases the overall particulate filtration efficiency of the structure. Improved fine fiber structures have been developed in which a controlled amount of fine fiber is placed on both sides of the media to result in an improvement in filter efficiency but a substantial improvement in lifetime.
